Control Freak vs. Self-Control

I'll let you guess which one I hate.

Let's say you want to avoid feeling jealousy because your boyfriend or girlfriend is friends with other girls/boys (respectively). You can either:

A) Make sure your bf/gf [those are abbreviations, for the over-20 generation] does not EVER MAKE ANY KIND OF CONTACT with those of the opposite sex. That means you make sure the threats are there and that those girls aren't calling your guy EVER, or vice versa. So you turn into a control freak and become the psycho girlfriend/boyfriend. Nice. Or you can

B) CONTROL YOUR OWN EMOTIONS and not let simple, platonic friendships get in the way of your relationship. Real "lovers" aren't jealous.

Once again, you pick which one I think is best.

So all you insanely jealous folk out there, get over yourselves. If the guy or girl you're with feels like they want to cheat on you, maybe the whole relationship isn't worth your time.

And remember--girls and guys can be friends without intimacy developing. Trust me. It's completely possible.

With a frustrated sigh, Abbs is out.
